Accept "Present" as a valid "endDate" value #762

Closed seppzer0 closed 1 year ago

seppzer0 commented 1 year ago

Let's say, I want to specify that I am still studiying in my college and/or still working at some company. In that case, it would be appropriate to set a "Present" value for the endDate parameter in resume.json .

I found that "Present" value actually works properly when specified in work block of the resume.json -- and it does render sucessfully when running resume serve. However, when trying the same for education -- the endDate renders as Invalid Date (e.g. below). image

So, it would be great if a Present is accepted as a valid value throughout all blocks of resume.json description!

Closing the issue as the project seems to be, unfortunately, dead.

Sorry that you didn't get a timely response for this.

This is actually dependent on the theme you're using rather than the spec. The spec already makes the end date optional, which is meant to represent that it's an ongoing tenure.

The theme should be checking if the end date is defined. If you remember, would you be able to share which theme you were using?
